But the average bear can't tell the difference. We're talking millions of dollars here, paid for with just a few well-placed words. Congratulations. Management now knows your lowest number, and is certain that APC is filled with complete loons. The latest super premium update from C20 touches on this a bit.
Now that's irony.
If the CDO debacle confirmed anything for us, as well as these recent LEC letters, we as line pilots are actually negotiting against the negotiating committee more than the company.
Still not sure how guys getting up and arms about rj, greenslip, lca and pay issues is a negative. I just don't see that.
The only problem it probably presents is for the NC.
